Local knowledge courses are excellent for beginners or experienced boaters who are new to the area.
Blue Ride Introduction To Powerboating courses are very popular, especially for people buying their first boat. The knowledge gained from a day on the water can help you to select the right type of craft. Courses are very flexible depending on your requirements and can include everything from a family introduction to boating to a ‘ladies only’ power boating session. Courses can be organised as a morning, afternoon or evening session.
